Okay, thanks.
So the question still remains. Is it advantageous to do it that way or to have each miner reporting separately to the pool to there be added up and tallied?
I mean, is it more profitable to combine total hash rates etc. at the origin point (local) or at the receipt point? Or does it matter at either way?
Does one method make more money than the other?
That's the point of this discussion, after all Wink

it's all going into the same wallet eventually so I don;t think there's any advantage to having a worked for each GS instance - unless you like to see the difference in has rates and it can be dramatic - I have 20 works set up for my 20 GS's and that has rates can run from 260 up to 415 sometimes.

Right, thanks!
I can see the same results 'averaged out' on my litecoinpool.org gui. rates run anywhere from 238 on up to 545KH/s at any given time. Average for entire group (6) runs around 2130KH/s. I'm seeing averages per unit at round 400+ a lot of the time. So I'm good with it.
So it would seem that one method is not more profitable than the other, so far.
I wonder what others' experiences are though.
Anyone else want to chime in?

Here is some very thoughtful and well-researched analysis of cgminer vs cpuminer pros and cons:

That's just a pitch to the unwary to sucker them into using cgminer. IMO, cgminer and bfdminer are still too much of a pain in the ars to use because they are line code intensive and you have to learn coding, albeit a somewhat higher language than assembly. Still, so much to memorise. Check the threads on them. You'll find tons of config errors, troubleshooting and very few are actually running stably with them, without having to babysit them.

Skip all that mess and just use cpuminer if you want to get up and running in minutes instead of hours ,,, or years Cheesy!!!

Scrap that other stuff and use this,, only... http://cryptomining-blog.com/?s=Download+cpuminer+for+Gridseed+5-chip+GC3355+ASICs+with+Reduced+Power+Usage

Good luck!
